A Veg Evening in Frederick, 7-21-15, 7pm to 9pm
We’re back... with another OFF THE HOOK evening of vegan food and drinks for YOU!!! Yes, we love you this much. Last month, we did a festival in Ellicott City. This month, travel to Frederick with us. Seriously. Get in the car or find a ride. You will NOT want to miss this...
On Tuesday July 21, 2015. Frederick Veg will team up with Baltimore Vegan Drinks to offer a “vegan night on the town” in downtown Frederick.
The crowning jewel of the event is “Breakfast for Dinner” at Glory Doughnuts, Marylands only all-vegan doughnut shop, at 244 East Church Street, Frederick. Though typically open only early in the day, owners Alissa and Keirsten will welcome dinner patrons for doughnuts, tofu-fried-egg sandwiches and vegan BBQ sammies. Yes folks, it is really vegan breakfast for dinner.
But we’re not done!
Have your doughnut in hand? Swing by vegan-owned indie bookstore Curious Iguana, 12 North Market Street in Downtown Frederick, from 7 ‘til 9 pm to meet Gene Baur, the cofounder and president of Farm Sanctuary and NYT best-selling author of “Living the Farm Sanctuary Life: The Ultimate Guide to Eating Mindfully, Living Longer, and Feeling Better Every Day.” In this definitive vegan and lifestyle guide, Baur explores the transformative experience of visiting the nation’s leading farm animal protection organization and the basic tenets of Farm Sanctuary life. The book teaches readers how to incorporate Farm Sanctuary principles into their lives and also how to cook and eat the Farm Sanctuary way, with 100 delicious recipes. All books sold that night will benefit Farm Sanctuary’s animals directly!
